Abstract
Tujuan utama kajian ini adalah memberi satu pemahaman asas akan
tingkahlaku isirumah dari segi peruntukan pendapatan di antara jumlah perbelanjaan dan
tabungan serta peruntukan jumlah perbelanjaan di antara pelbagai jenis barangan. Kajian
ini telah berjaya memperolehi banyak penemuan penting mengenai corak perbelanjaan dan
tabungan isirumah di Semenanjung Malaysia.
Faktor pendapatan merupakan faktor yang terpenting dalam mempengaruhi corak
perbelanjaan dan tabungan isirumah. Ia mempunyai pengaruh postif yang nyata ke atas
kesemua jenis perbelanjaan barangan dan tabungan. Peningkatan perbelanjaan berikutan
daripada peningkatan pendapatan adalah berbeza dari satu barangan ke barangan yang lain.
Selain daripada pendapatan, lokasi kediaman, saiz isirumah dan keturunan etnik juga
mempunyai pengaruh yang nyata ke atas perbelanjaan barangan yang berbeza. Tambahan
pula, kedua-dua faktor saiz isirumah dan keturunan etnik juga memainkan peranan yang
penting dalam mempengaruhi tabungan isirumah.
The main objective of this study is to provide a basic understanding of household
behaviour, particularly on how households allocate their income between total expenditure
and savings as well as how they allocate their total expenditure among various consumption
goods. This study has resulted in a number of important findings on the household
expenditure and savings patterns in Peninsular Malaysia.
Income is the most important determinant of household expenditure and savings
patterns. It has a significant positive effect on the expenditure on all commodities and on
the savings. The increase in expenditure with respect to an increase in income not only
differs from one good to another good, but it also varies from one household group to
another. Besides income, place of residence, household size and ethnic group also have
significant effects on the expenditure on different commodities. Furthermore, both
household size and ethnic group also play an important role in influencing household
savings.
